SHATTERING the MYTH of AGING celebrates seniors who participate in a full range of athletic activities. The impressive result is that these men and women become stronger and more active, rather than less, as the years go by. The story follows a man in his 70s, who has won more than 200 Senior State and Regional medals. We watch as he and other seniors discover that, with attention, their bodies continue to learn new skills.

Subject: Senior Olympic Gold Medalist at 74!
Very inspiring look at mainly Ron Chilton who wasn't into athletics until he became a Senior! He has won 123 Gold Medals competing in the Senior Olympic Games! We all can be inspired by him and his friends. It really is never too late!
